Success Stories

Founded in 2008 and based in Austin, Texas, Abrams Learning Trends is dedicated to supporting educators with innovative Pre-K through Grade 5 supplemental educational materials that provide targeted solutions for literacy, phonics, math, science, health and safety, and more.

The Situation: Salesforce and Sage 100 ERP don’t communicate with each other out of the box which created a manual data entry problem for Abrams Learning Trends

Abrams Learning Trends uses Salesforce to keep track of orders, invoices, and shipments for all of their customers. They also use Sage 100 ERP for their back-office financials. While both of these systems are great tools on their own, they don’t easily allow for exchanging data back and forth between the two.

This meant lots of bi-directional manual data entry between Salesforce and Sage 100 ERP for the employees at Abrams Learning Trends. They quickly discovered that this was a time-consuming, and difficult process for which they needed to find a better solution.

Fast forward to today. Comfort Research with its innovative chairs have sold millions of units of their creation and have found the “recipe for success” to growing their business. Their promise? To always be FAT – FUNctional, Affordable, and Trendy.
